VFD selection and harmonics: what to get right before the drive arrives
Sizing, bypass, braking, cable, and the harmonic distortion that variable-frequency drives push back onto your plant power.
Line reactor
Inductive filter ahead of drives.
Three-phase inductor installed upstream of VFDs to absorb power-line transients, reduce harmonics, and protect the drive's rectifier. Companion to load reactors and braking resistors in drive panels.

Hazardous area classification, explained
Zones, divisions, gas groups and temperature classes decide which equipment may sit in a classified area. IP and NEMA ratings answer a different question.
PLC FAT and SAT checklist: test behavior and handover evidence
Plan factory and site acceptance around requirements, observable results, failure states, approved changes and recoverable project files.
